NGCP maximizes shared resources and equitable access. We host webinars and events, participate in conferences, convey exemplary practices and current research, and showcase program models and tools for working with girls in STEM. NGCP also promotes, and sometimes co-hosts, events with our partners and Local Collaboratives.
Upcoming events, news, and professional development opportunities are listed below, as well as published in our monthly e-newsletter.
"Before working with NGCP, it was time consuming and exhausting to navigate the glut of information out there regarding STEM for girls. Because STEM is only a portion of what I do in my job, it really wasn’t time well spent. I place great value and get a huge return on the time invested in attending NGCP events."

Scaling STEM Equitably: Practitioner Driven Reflections and Emerging Guidelines
In May 2023, practitioners across the informal STEM landscape gathered in Washington, D.C., to challenge the ways we conventionally scale informal STEM programs and collaboratively brainstorm new paths forward that center equity. Now, a year later, we will share a set of emerging guidelines and a new tool that supports equitable approaches to scaling informal STEM programs. To learn more about the project and findings, visit the webpage.
